Repairing versus replacing in Norbiton

If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is usually best. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Prices start from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

How to look after the repair

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use

Keep an eye on the sealant, and replace it when it splits or goes black.

Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you can’t see.

How it works

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we are there. We protect the area first, then the work takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We ensure the tray does not flex and look for the cause of any crack.
  2. Next we clean and prepare the tray.
  3. We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
  4. We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the entire tray.
  5. We leave it to cure; the shower is typically usable the day after.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

When a repair is not the answer

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

Our hiring checklist

What shower tray repair costs

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Norbiton. What changes the price is:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Access to the area
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • What kind of damage it is

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Getting a price from pictures

Phone photos are fine. Just make sure we can see:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • The material, if you know it
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Where you are, by postcode

To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Different materials, different repairs

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
